Bill Maher Battles Julian Assange, Accuses Him Of Working With Russia To Hurt Hillary [VIDEO]

Mediaite recaps:

Bill Maher faced off with WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange over the DNC email hack and wow, was it quite something. The interview started out normally, with Maher challenging him on the idea of a big “smoking gun” in the DNC emails. Assange pointed to evidence of plots against Bernie Sanders, but Maher said there were no plots.

And then Maher accused Assange of “working with a bad actor, Russia” to take down “the one person who stands in the way of us electing Donald Trump!” Assange went ahead and upped the ante by bringing up a “William Maher” he found who donated money to a Clinton-affiliated organization, and proceeded to confront Maher over whether it was him. Quite a bit. Maher said, “Fuck no.”

Assange went on to say that he is “working on” hacking into Trump’s tax returns.
